I disagree wholeheartedly.
If there is a candidate that is well spoken, there is no way they are going to be anything else but a vote the party line shill.
You can't tell me with a straight face some new backbencher is going to stand up to their party leadership over their ethical and moral shortcomings.
You can't vote for the individual in federal and provincial elections. None of the "good on both sides" stuff works here.
On a personal note, I don't care how smart and nice a UCP candidate might come across as. I know he'll be kissing some repugnant ass and no way in hell would I vote for a candidate from that party.
